How it works

The restoration process

1

Initial assessment

A technician inspects the affected areas of your Santa Monica property and identifies the source and extent of the water intrusion.

2

Mitigation plan

Based on the assessment, a mitigation plan is put together - what needs extracting, drying, or removing, and roughly how long it will take.

3

Water extraction

Standing water is removed using pumps and extraction equipment, prioritizing areas at the highest risk of further damage.

4

Structural drying

Air movers and dehumidifiers are set up to dry out affected materials, with moisture levels checked periodically over the following days.

5

Sanitization

Affected surfaces are cleaned and treated to address contamination risk and reduce the chance of mold developing afterward.

6

Final inspection

A final check confirms materials are back within a safe moisture range, and documentation is provided for insurance purposes.

FAQ

Common questions in Santa Monica

Can mold in HVAC ducts spread throughout the house?

Yes, mold in ductwork can circulate spores through the home's air system, so HVAC inspection is often recommended after any significant water damage event.

Is there a risk of mold after flood cleanup even if it looks dry?

Yes, moisture can remain trapped behind walls or under flooring, so moisture testing after the visible cleanup is an important step.

Should I avoid the affected area myself until help arrives?

Yes, it's advisable to keep people and pets away from sewage-affected areas and avoid direct contact until a professional crew has assessed and treated the area.

Does drying equipment increase my electricity bill?

Running multiple air movers and dehumidifiers for several days can add to your electricity usage, which is worth discussing with your technician or insurance adjuster.

Is sewage backup considered a health hazard?

Yes, sewage backup is classified as contaminated 'black water' and is generally treated as a biohazard requiring specialized cleanup and protective equipment.

Do I need to leave my home during mold remediation?

For larger mold remediation jobs, containment barriers are often set up, and depending on the affected area's location, you may be advised to stay elsewhere temporarily.

What items are usually unsalvageable after flooding?

Porous items like carpet padding, some drywall, and certain furniture often can't be fully sanitized and may need replacement, while other items can sometimes be cleaned and dried.
